You didn't have trailer brakes on that big ol' 3-horse slant trailer y'all were pulling!! I don't have brakes on my 2-horse, but that's the biggest thing I'd ever feel comfortable pulling without them. I don't know how you did it. It'd scare me to death.

Well, not having them even on a two horse sounds scary to me... but all horse trailers have to have them here, even the small older straight loads.

I wonder if it's flatland behavior where there aren't a lot of hills that people get away without them?

It is actually a 4 horse slant. We just had 3 horses tho. The first slot was full of hay.

It was not smart at all to pull that thing with no brakes. But......no one listens to me. Charlie was just very very careful, not to get close to anyone. Luckily we didn't have many towns to go thru, it was almost all dual highway.
